Linux:

You can regularly back up the Management Server data to prevent data loss in the event of a failure. Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager provides the vom_bkup.pl script that you can use to back up and restore data.

Before you take the backup, review information on what is supported, and the limitations.

To take regular backups of Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager data on Linux

a). On the host where you plan to back up Management Server, log on as a root user.
b). Locate the vom_bkup.pl perl script at the following location:
. /opt/VRTSsfmcs/config/adm/

c). To take the backup, run the script at the command prompt:
./vom_bkup.pl --backup dir

where, dir is the location that you specify for creating the backup. You can specify any location except /var/opt/VRTSsfmh, /opt/VRTSsfmh, /var/opt/VRTSsfmcs, or /opt/VRTSsfmcs.
